[2 cases of abdominal endometriosis].
Abdominal wall endometriosis usually occurs in the surgical scar of previous cesarean sections. This condition often presents as a mass with cyclical pain and swelling. Two cases of abdominal scar endometriosis are reported. The definitive diagnosis was established by pathologic analysis. Both patients were premenopausal with no history of endometriosis. Pelvic endometriosis was not detected in the patient undergone laparotomy. The management consisted in perform and adequate excision to prevent recurrence. The utility of drug therapy is evaluated.
